I guess the DVI adapter is passive.

$ xrandr --props
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 4480 x 1440, maximum 8192 x 8192
XWAYLAND1 connected 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y 
axis) 510mm x 290mm
     non-desktop: 0
         supported: 0, 1
    1920x1080     59.96*+
XWAYLAND4 connected 2560x1440+1920+0 (normal left inverted right x axis 
y axis) 600mm x 340mm
     non-desktop: 0
